Does anyone have any examples of electronic music in some other time signature than 4/4? I'm trying to find some, but they're a bit... well, uncommon.
Pretty much any genre goes as long as it's electronic and has a beat.

It's so uncommon, even the composer had no idea he was making it. Rather fascinating how folks figured it out too.

3/4 ?
Its funny I tried googling what people are suggesting and couldn't find anything other than the waltzy hiphop and that terminator theme posted above. Im assuming its more prevalent on albums, its just that I dont really take notice, so I can only provide 2 examples.

Little debate in the YT comments as to whether it's really 6/8, 2/4 or 4/4.

3/4 and I think he made another track which wasn't 4/4.

if you dancing to it, its 4/4 or an equivalent depending on how you hear it.
You might get some sort of polyrythm over 4/4 or a few bars that are odd time but its really rare and if it exists, it is so hidden that it will just sound like 4/4 without a backbeaert.
tons of electronic music tho that is in odd time. look up IDM and all those genres.

it is subjective in that they are all somewhat the same. I would say 2/4 would seem an odd choice in that i'm pretty sure the 8 bar pattern change ubiquitous in dance probably applies here making 2/4 unnecessary. But if this was live and the conductor felt 2/4 worked better , well its in 2/4. Listened to about 30 seconds and there is an 8 bar phrase so i would say it mmakes most sense labelling it 4/ 4 or 12/8 . The title might just refer to
a particular technical issue with a sequencer where 6/8 had to be used. 6/8 allso looks better. 6/8 is to 2/4 as 12/8 is to 4/4.
time signatures depend on how you hear it and the logistics of parsing the music with notation or i suppose even a daw.
darkside is 4/4 or 12/8
